Feeling nervous about being in front of the camera is completely natural, especially during a maternity session. At Shanyn Nicole Studios, we understand these feelings and are dedicated to making you feel comfortable and confident throughout the process. Your maternity portraits will be the experience you have always dreamed of being.
One way we help ease your nerves is through a pre-session consultation. This is an opportunity to discuss your vision, preferences, and any concerns you might have. By getting to know each other beforehand, we can address your questions and set clear expectations, which often alleviates anxiety.
During the session itself, we provide gentle guidance on poses and expressions. Our aim is to ensure you feel relaxed and natural while we offer direction and encouragement. We want you to feel supported and at ease every step of the way. Ashley chose our premier package. This included hair, makeup, and two locations! We did the studio and Lost Dutchman State Park for two very different vibes.
Creating a comfortable environment is another priority for us. Whether it’s choosing the perfect backdrop or playing your favorite music, we strive to make the experience enjoyable and tailored to your preferences. Our goal is to make you feel as at home as possible. Ashley had a very specific feeling in mind for her session. She wanted to feel beautiful, powerful, and have a timeless look to her maternity portraits.
It’s also helpful to focus on the positive aspects of your session. This is a special time to celebrate a significant milestone in your life, and our job is to capture the joy and excitement of this moment. By concentrating on the happiness of your growing family, you can shift your focus away from any self-consciousness.
Finally, practicing relaxation techniques before your session can make a big difference. Simple methods like deep breathing or light stretching can help calm your nerves and create a more relaxed mindset.
With these approaches, we hope to help you embrace the experience and enjoy a memorable maternity session. Your journey is unique and beautiful, and we’re here to ensure it’s captured in the best light possible.
